Kanayama is sure that his pupils will pass the test, and he hopes to build a mass-education plant: a channel with a long series of electrified tin fish. Small trout passing through it will get scare after scare and emerge fully trained for life in a dangerous river. But the biologist is still bothered. Why should successful students grow to bright-colored maturity only to be caught on an angler's hook? "I have become so fond of the lovely rainbow trout," he says with a tender smile, "that I may start another project to teach them...

But still to be answered were two major questions. Should the "chunnel" (for channel tunnel) be bored through the chalk of the channel bottom, or should 23 miles of segmented tubes be laid across the intervening seabed? And how would the $448 million project be financed? Chunnel buffs talked excitedly of the first auto carrying train zipping smoothly from Folkestone to Sangatte...

...Chiang Kaishek, who "tried to channel the flood" after World War II but failed "when the Americans withdrew the direct support of their forces." That, presumably, was for the benefit of the U.S.-supported South Vietnamese. Next was Russia's turn: "The Kremlin counted on keeping China in its power and, by this, dominating Asia. But such illusions were dissipated" as a conflict arose between "Russia, which holds and which keeps, and China, which needs to grow and to take...
